Maintainer roles are never "no one else can touch my portions of the tree". This specific cleanup patch was sent on December 19, and then due to no response, I applied it to my tree on January 4, a little over 2 week. For a cleanup patch, that didn't add a new feature or do anything really "serious", 2 weeks with no response makes me assume that no one objects to it so I'll just sweep it up with the rest of those types of patches and add them to my tree, especially as the merge window is about to close for new stuff like this. Nothing special, this is how normal tree-wide changes happen all the time, especially for "trivial" stuff like this. thanks, greg k-h
